LOL! I can imagine that one wasn't your cup o' tea. My brother could barely stomach it as well.

My first J-pop CD. :ashamed:

Congrats! :victory: That was fast. How do you like it so far? Have you listened to it yet? I don't have any J-pop CDs. I just go to ralphm1999's myspace if I want to hear some nice J-pop music. :woot: :dancing:

Tear-jerking drivel.... Yeah, it's won craploads of awards, but I can do without getting put through an emotional wringer.

It's not bad... The title track, Issyun, has a nice, punchy beat to it... The rest is just fluffy pop.

I don't have any J-pop CDs.

You've gotta work on that (I should talk... :nut: ).

My mom and I would both like to know what RSVP means.
You know in letters and even b-day invitations, RSVP shows up

it's french for "repondez s'il vous plaît" meaning "please respond."

What a fancy way of saying it :beaten: :hehe: :hehe:

Thanks a lot buddy.

I know I definately won't remember Respondez SIl Vous Plait is what RSVP stands for in like a months time :hehe: :hehe:

Thanks B-kun. I can't get my ear used to J-Pop. The lyrics never seem to quite fit into the beat of the music. The voices of most of the J-Pop singers are lovely though. Enjoy!

Yeah, that takes some getting used to... Easier with a female voice, IMO. :mrgreen:

Go figure. :hehe:

Indonesian tv directores and production houses are getting out of control. someone should really sue them or something. Recently, a production house did (another) plagiat. They made a total copy One Litre of Tears. And I bet they didn't buy a lisence for it. They've been doing this with k-doramas before, but it didn't annoy me back then, but once they did it to a j-dorama... :usuck:
And worse, every time they do this copy cat thing, they always do it in a not serious way, believing that the story they're copying is excellent, they made this lame dumb guy which i thought was the worst actor i've ever seen in my entire life as the lead actor. And i wouldn't call it 'adaptation' coz they look exactly the same, even though it's not aired yet, but you can already see it from the add. the conducting thing, the bicycle thing, the bruise on the cheek thing... geez....... and the title is actually Naela's Diary... puh-leez... :usuck:

That's just lame. :shakehead:

that's part of the problem w/ international copyright laws.. all you need to change is a little bit, and give a sparse credit somewhere and you can escape all royalties.

... and by the time they sue them, they changed company names 3 times or are located in the Cayman Islands. =T

not if you're in Hollywood, it's rather blatant here.. a simple "based on *******/based on a true story" is all you need to skirt the laws, you could still sue, but studios have solid legal precedent.
